Search for Dark Matter with AMS-02 — •Chan Hoon Chung1 and AMS TRD Collaboration1,2,3,4,5 — 1I. Physikalisches Institut B, RWTH-Aachen, D-52056, Aachen, Germany — 2CHEP, KNU, South Korea — 3IEKP, TH-Karlsruhe — 4INFN, Rome, Italy — 5MIT-LNS, Boston, USA
The Alpha Magnetci Spectrometer(AMS-02) is a particle physics detector to be installed on the International Space Station(ISS) in 2007 and operated at least three consecutive years. The observation of positron spectrum in space offers an attractive way to search for supersymmetric dark matter candidates through annihilation in the galactic halo in addition to study of galactic cosmic ray propagation model. We will review the present situation and show the performance of AMS-02 detector for indirect dark matter search.
